I have always supported The Hills reboot, but I can’t help feeling confusion every time there’s additional casting news. How is this a “reality show” when there are just (seemingly) random people thrown in on top of some original cast members who are in touch for the first time in years?

That article quotes an insider who said, “The show is very Brody Jenner centric.” That same source claimed, The cast is circling around him and his friends.” Is Brandon in Brody’s group of friends? Whether he is or not, he is about to be and there’s bound to be a ton of (manufactured) drama.

He is 22 years old, which is significantly younger than everyone else on this show. For reference, Brody is 32. So how does he fit in with all of this? What is the plan here? There are just so many uncertainties surrounding this Hills reboot. Nevertheless, I will be tuning in live, week after week, no matter what.
